Exploration and curiosity are rewarded not only are most of the achievements earned by doing things other than the main quest, but some of the most exciting aspects of the game are discovered by interacting with the world in strange ways. Everyone speaks in gibberish and further communicates in cartoonish pictures with one another. This is a game where slow exploration is rewarded, and those rushing towards the end will miss far too much.Įvery world you visit has a unique aesthetic, and all are filled with people-ish characters, fantastical animals, and bizarre insects.

Soon, you begin flying throughout the universe, helping people, solving puzzles, and meeting some extremely odd creatures. Using this flute, you must travel around your planet, listening to music and playing it back, solving puzzles, and acquiring objects so that you can build a spaceship.
